Simon Mobile
Simon Mobile is a navigation application designed for impaired users. In Madrid, Parma and Lisbon, it provides access to important accessibility information such as the location of disabled parking spots or the location of elevators and ramps to access subway stations. With Simon Mobile, you can compute walking, driving and transit routes and use step-by-step navigation during your trip*. What it is more; it is totally accessible. It can be configured If the person is a PRM (wheelchair user, baby buggies, luggage, partially blind etc.).
Simon Mobile integrates with the Simon disabled badge that is currently tested in a large-scale pilot running several European cities. The goal of this badge is to reduce the fraudulent use of disabled parking spots to ensure that they are available to the persons that really need them. Combined with a Simon disabled badge, you can use Simon Mobile to validate for parking and to view the usage history of your badge.
Best of all, it is completely free! Try Simon Mobile and let us know what you think about it. To learn more about the team behind Simon Mobile and the goals of the SIMON project, visit
